Phosphatidylcholine is a vital substance that is in every cell in the human body. At birth and throughout infancy, phosphatidylcholine concentrations are high (as high as 90% of the cell membrane), but it is slowly depleted throughout the course of life, and may drop to as low as 10% of the cellular membrane in the elderly

If what they say is true then it would appear that infants have a higher chance of heart problems then older adults.I think we all know the opposite is true!Makes you wonder what the real purpose of this study is. After reading the abstract I smelled statins and the discrediting of Lypo-C.

To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many isresearch!

A NOTE:As people start learning about these items. You'll see how beneficial lipids are to the body this counters the "lipid theroy," which paints lipids as evil. Therefore there will be great attemps to discredit them in anyway they can in the name of of Big Pharma Profits. ie."STATINS" So keep an open mind in your search for the truth!

Skyorbit:Here's a wiki link it gives a lot of detail!Anyone care for a good helping of Cow Brains UUMMMM!

"Unless we put medical freedom into the constitution...medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship..force people who wish doctors and treatment of their own choice to submit to only what..dictating outfit offers." Dr. Benjamin Rush

" the “amazing” category are the results with atherosclerosis (aka, hardening of the arteries, or plaque deposits). In order to monitor plaque deposition, I have been examining the retinal field; since that is the only place you can visualize the arteries without expensive imaging studies. After as little as 3 or 4 months on high dose CS, I began to see changes in the retinal field. People whose arteries were “copper wire” in appearance – indicating severe plaque deposition – began to show improvement. And, at 6 months, the changes were even more marked; the arteries no longer looked like wires, there were only intermittent speckles of plaque. By 9 to 12 months, several of my patients had complete resolution of the abnormalities in their retinal arteries."

Anyone interested in lecithin might be like to do a google search for info about Dr Jacob Rinse, who doubled his lifespan following a heart attack/angina by taking a combination of substances, including lecithin.

Some of the mechanisms behind how it is supposed to work, involving HDL, LCAT, cholesteryl esters etc. get a bit beyond me, unfortunately. (See page 98 of STOP AMERICA'S #1 KILLER by Dr Levy.) Perhaps some of the board's more scientific members will get more out of it reading about it than I did.

I believe Dr Morrison stated that polyunsaturated (soy) lecithins are best, and egg lecithins not so good.

Chemist Dr. Gerard F. Judd wrote this at the beginning of his revised edition of his book "Good Teeth Birth to Death"

Error No 4: A fourth change may not be an error but just a thought. A mixture of monosodium phosphate and disodium phosphate, 1/20th teaspoon/da each, is probably betterthan lecithin, to provide phosphate for the body. Lecithin lowered triglycerides in my blood system from ~200 to ~50 and may have crinkled my arteries, thusaccelerating my need for a quadruple bypass
